ABSTRACT
The single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are known for their exceptional physical, chemical, mechanical, and structural properties.1 This makes them prospective components of nanoscale and molecular electronic devices. For instance, applications of SWCNTs in the elds of nanoelectronics,2-5 bioelectronics,6,7 and thin-lm ‰exible electronics8-11 have been already realized. Although suf cient progress has been made in constructing nanotube-based elements of nanoelectronics,10,12,13 full potential of SWCNTs is still not implemented in practical applications. The limiting factor is the presence of nanotubes of both conductivity types (metallic and semiconducting) in the typical synthesized samples, which causes inhomogeneity of their electronic properties.
